Components are reusable bits of code that, most of the time, work and function independently. If you want to be confident that components are working properly, you need to test them. Conveniently, Cypress.io has designed their testing framework to include component testing. This tutorial illustrates the differences between end-to-end (E2E) and component testing, and what to consider when using these methods. Then, you will learn how to use Cypress for component testing.
We can completely eliminate software vulnerabilities caused by memory corruption by moving software away from C and C++. The National Security Agency (NSA) is urging developers to shift to memory safe languages – such as C#, Go, Java, Ruby, Rust, and Swift. Could 2023 be the year of memory safety?
Earlier this year, CircleCI added GitLab as the third version control system that we support, in addition to GitHub and Bitbucket. At CircleCI, it’s vital that we meet our users where they are, and many of our users are on GitLab. We were happy to make it possible for our users to build, test, and deploy via the GitLab platform.
When it comes to building RESTful APIs, PHP’s open source Laravel framework remains a top 5 backend framework for web development. Laravel also makes testing your API endpoints a breeze by providing an easy-to-use testing suite. In this post, we will build a token-based authentication API with Laravel, write tests for the endpoints, and automate the build and testing process with CircleCI.
This article is based on conversations with Lætitia Avrot, Field CTO at EDB and David Tuite Founder of Roadie from our webinar on the Who What Where and Why of Commercial Open Source that you can watch here.
GitLab is a complete DevOps platform that enables enterprises and organizations to deliver software to markets smoothly while ensuring high product quality.
